Picture lovers breaking awkward silence with quiet greeting (10)
I believe the answer is:
cinephiles
'picture lovers breaking' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I can't tell whether it can be defined by this definition.
'awkward silence with quiet greeting' is the wordplay.
'awkward' indicates anagramming the letters.
'with' indicates putting letters inside.
'quiet' becomes 'p' (music symbol for 'piano', ie soft or quiet).
'greeting' becomes 'hi' (hi is a kind of greeting).
'silence' is an anagram of 'cineles'.
'p'+'hi'='phi'
'cineles' going around 'phi' is 'CINEPHILES'.
